View Source Plausible.Cldr.AcceptLanguage (Plausible v0.0.1)

Parses HTTP Accept-Language header values as defined in rfc2616.

The Accept-Language request-header field is similar to Accept, but restricts the set of natural languages that are preferred as a response to the request. Language tags function are provided in Cldr.LanguageTag.

The format of an Accept-Language header is as follows in ABNF format:

   Accept-Language = "Accept-Language" ":"
                     1#( language-range [ ";" "q" "=" qvalue ] )
   language-range  = ( ( 1*8ALPHA *( "-" 1*8ALPHA ) ) | "*" )

Each language-range MAY be given an associated quality value which represents an estimate of the user's preference for the languages specified by that range. The quality value defaults to "q=1". For example,

   Accept-Language: da, en-gb;q=0.8, en;q=0.7

would mean: "I prefer Danish, but will accept British English and other types of English."

     | {:error, {Cldr.InvalidLanguageTag, String.t()}},

  | {:error, {Cldr.AcceptLanguageError, String.t()}}

Parses an Accept-Language header value in its string or tokenized form to return a tuple of the form {:ok, [{quality, %Cldr.LanguageTag{}}, ...]} sorted by quality.

arguments

Arguments

  • accept-language is any string in the format defined by rfc2616

  • backend is any module that includes use Cldr and therefore is a Cldr backend module

returns

Returns

  • {:ok, [{quality, language_tag}, ...]} or

  • {:error, {Cldr.AcceptLanguageError, String.t}}

If at least one valid language tag is found but errors are also detected on one more more tags, an {ok, list} tuple is returned wuth an error tuple for each invalid tag added at the end of the list.
